Noun (astrophysics term): the small, highly-dense stellar body remaining after the nova detonation of a "main sequence" star, typically Earth-sized in overall dimension, but displacing a gravitational mass equivalent to that of the Earth's Sun.
Astrophysicists now calculate that white dwarf stars may account for as much as 6% of all the known stars in our quadrant of the Milky Way galaxy.

Genius sci-fi sitcom where humanity is (almost) extinct. Spawned the word Smeg as well as various classic gags. Brilliantly written, as there are no cliches in the script whatsoever (example: Instead of using "Dead as the DoDo" a phrase like "We're deader than A-line flares with pockets in the knees." is used)
Has had 8 excellent seasons with the first 6 available on DVD (and the next two coming in Novemeber and February)
Talk of a movie in the pipeline, but no sign as yet.

A multitude of Fun.
This game mainly involves the management of a fortress of Dwarves in the hope that you'll survive another year and not get overrun by the Goblins.
Oh, and it's ASCII.

A secondary category of planets, but not actually. Dwarf planets are bodies of rock that orbit the Sun and are too small to classify as a planet. The Dwarf planets in our solar system as of this definition are Ceres, Pluto, and Eris.
1. Pluto was a planet until the discovery of a bunch of objects about its size brought it down to dwarf planet. All those bodies will soon be dwarf planets.

A small, creepy african american that is as rare as a lepercan (or however you spell it) It can only be seen on nights with rainbows, and is usual found standing over a unsuspecting 5 year old boy as he sleeps.
